What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Treatment-Emergent Serious Adverse Events (TESAEs)

    An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to study drug in a participant who received study drug. A serious adverse event (SAE) was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Treatment-emergent are events between administration of study drug and Day 169 that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pretreatment state.

    Time frame: Day 1 to Day 169

Secondary outcomes

  1. Pharmacokinetic Parameters for MEDI-570

    Following pharmacokinetic parameters were to be evaluated by using non-compartmental analysis: t1/2 = terminal phase elimination half-life which is the time measured for the serum concentration to decrease by one half; tmax = time to maximum observed serum concentration; Cmax = maximum observed serum concentration; AUC (0-t) = area under the serum concentration-time curve from time 0 to last measurable concentration; AUC (0-infinity) = area under the serum concentration-time curve from time 0 to extrapolated infinite time obtained from AUC (0-t) plus AUC (t-infinity); Vz/F = apparent volume of distribution, which is the theoretical volume in which the total amount of drug would need to be uniformly distributed to produce the desired serum concentration of a drug; CL/F = apparent clearance which is a measure of the rate at which a drug is metabolized or eliminated by normal biological processes.

    Time frame: Predose and postdose on Day 1; Day 3, 5, 8, 15, 29, 57, 85, 113, 141, and 169

  2. Number of Participants With Anti-Drug Antibodies to MEDI-570 at Any Visit

    Time frame: Predose on Day 1; Day 85, 113, and 169
